What made fans believe that AJ Lee might be returning to WWE?

While his hints were cryptic and confusing, AJ Lee might be hinting at her return in a rather straightforward fashion.

Since his return, CM Punk has mentioned AJ Lee’s name on live television a number of times. While it is rather unusual for a star to mention their personal life in the ring, fans believe that the name-dropping might be a potential hint. Apart from that, Punk was seen at the WWE NXT following his return. While he was talking with Cora Jade backstage, Lee dropped by to meet the two. While she might not be planning to enter the ring, do you think she is planning to be a part of the NXT? Or do you think that will happen after her 2024 Royal Rumble return?
